See our previous thoughts on what to expect at the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards here.

The State of the Race

There is a level of resignation to the high chance that HBO will at least tie the record for most series nominated in one category within a year, given its surfeit of Outstanding Drama Series contenders. “Succession” won last year, despite being up against global phenomenon “Squid Game,” while “The White Lotus” won the Emmy for Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series, despite being up against the deluge of high-profile limited series that premiered spring 2022. Now, the two hit shows’ greatest competition is each other.

Genre programs have recently done well in the category, and both fantasy drama “House of the Dragon” and post-apocalyptic video game adaptation “The Last of Us” have Emmy-winning producers behind them, but the former two HBO shows have a sense of finality to them (with one fully ending, and the other closing the chapter on a beloved character), so a win for “Succession” or “The White Lotus” seems more urgent.

All that said, there is a chance all the votes for HBO dramas cancel each other out in some way, and make room for another network to win big. “Better Call Saul” is another show on its final Emmy run, earning 46 nominations over five and a half seasons, yet no wins. Unfortunately, history shows that the TV Academy way more often chooses to honor the actor(s) rather than the series itself when it hands out an Emmy as a parting gift, so AMC faces a steep uphill battle in this category.

Former Outstanding Drama Series winner “The Crown” (Netflix) and “The Handmaid’s Tale” (Hulu) have a better chance at winning according to statistics, but the specific seasons that are up for the award failed to resonate in any way close to the shows’ peaks.

Similarly, “Yellowjackets” (Showtime) has been in a sophomore slump according to several critics, but the same could have been said of “Ted Lasso,” which won Outstanding Comedy Series for its second season. Based on the several above the line nominations the survival series got, including two entries in the Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series category, fans of the show that also happen to be Emmy voters are more than likely to show even more love for “Yellowjackets” this time around, making it HBO’s greatest threat.

Current Contenders (In Alphabetical Order):
“1923” (Paramount+)
“Andor” (Disney+)
“Bad Sisters” (Apple TV+)
“Better Call Saul” (AMC)
“The Boys” (Prime Video)
“The Crown” (Netflix)
“The Handmaid’s Tale” (Hulu)
“House of the Dragon” (HBO)
“The Last of Us” (HBO)
“Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power” (Prime Video)
“The Mandalorian” (Disney+)
“Star Trek: Picard” (Paramount+)
“Succession” (HBO)
“The White Lotus” (HBO)
“Yellowjackets” (Showtime)

Last Year’s Winner: “Succession”
Still Eligible: Yes.
Hot Streak: Although “Succession” has won the category the past two seasons it’s been eligible, both “The Crown,” which won the category during the HBO drama’s year off, and “The White Lotus,” a new category entry that won Best Limited Series last year, stand in its way of a three-peat.
Notable Ineligible Series: “Severance” (Season 2 was not eligible); “Squid Game” (Season 2 was not eligible); “Bridgerton” (Season 3 was not eligible); “Euphoria” (Season 3 was not eligible); “The Morning Show” (Season 3 was not eligible); “Stranger Things” (Season 5 was not eligible); “Killing Eve” (ended); “Ozark” (ended); “This is Us” (ended)

NFL MVP Odds: Tua Tagovailoa Is Now The Outright Leader Over Patrick Mahomes

NFL MVP Odds: Tua Tagovailoa Is Now The Outright Leader Over Patrick Mahomes – originally posted on Sportslens.com

For the second time in three weeks, the Miami Dolphins put on a historic offensive showing on Sunday. They scored the 3rd most points in NFL history against the Broncos, even forfeiting a chance at breaking the record of 73. It was a well-rounded effort that thrived in both the rushing and passing attacks, and it has quarterback Tua Tagovailoa all by himself when it comes to the favorite to win the NFL’s MVP award.

Tua Tagovailoa Is Now The Overall Favorite For NFL MVP

The award was Patrick Mahomes’ to lose. The Chiefs quarterback is the reigning MVP of the NFL, and he entered the season with the shortest odds to repeat (+600). He was the outright favorite, but trailing close behind were guys like Josh Allen and Joe Burrow. Mahomes and the Chiefs got out to a rough start in Week 1, as did the other MVP candidates.

But not Tagovailoa. His 466 yard, 3 touchdown performance vaulted him to the top of the leader board, where he took a share of the lead with Mahomes at +650 going into Week 2. Tua’s performance against the Patriots in the second game was solid enough to keep him near the top, but the top of the leaderboard was cluttered heading into Week 3.

The clutter is gone. Tagovailoa led the Dolphins to their historic 70 point day, completing 89% of his passes en route to 309 yards and 4 touchdown passes. He achieved those numbers in just three quarters of play, and the oddsmakers at the sports books have taken notice.

Big Test For Tagovailoa And Miami In Week 4

As of Monday morning, Tagovailoa was listed as the heavy favorite to win the NFL MVP award, coming in at +400, the shortest of any MVP odds so far this season. Mahomes was listed at +700 at the time of writing, though that number is subject to heavy change. The public will believe that Mahomes will eventually win the MVP award until it is firmly taken out of his grasp, and the more that they bet on him with longer odds, the more his number will come down.

Will it last? Tagovailoa and the Dolphins will face their biggest test of the young season this coming Sunday, as they travel to Buffalo to face the division rival Bills. They have had one of the top-2 defenses in the league through the first three games, and are familiar with Tua and the Dolphins, having played against them three times last year.

The Bills are currently 2.5 point favorites for Sunday’s game.

There’s some light at the end of the tunnel for the historic dual strike as the WGA and AMPTP reached a tentative agreement to end the writers' strike this past Sunday. That means certain variety shows like Saturday Night Live have a clearer path to returning. It didn’t take long for SNL’s return to become public either as it's being reported that the award-winning sketch comedy show plans on an October premiere date for Season 49.
